All of us are bound by the law of nature. With gravity, what goes up must come down. This also holds true in acquiring the proper education that schools provide for the citizens of every society. Learning is for everybody regardless of race, gender or beliefs everybody deserves to be given education.
Education remains to be a timeless source of knowledge that keeps the human race abreast with the constant change within the natural environment. Both nature and people bring dynamic relationship to life. In the absence educational growth, progress will not be achieved since daily interactions and relationships depend on it. The point of order that establishes the balance of life is in itself the education of the human race.
We are all blessed with life not only to survive but to experience and enjoy the wholesome wonders it offers. To be able to experience the fullness of life there must always be the point of order. Unless meaning and purpose is clear, human existence is but gaping hole of inoperative monotony where all matters will be at the stage of stagnancy. It is true that no one knows what the future holds, but keeping in mind the spectrum of experience will make us realize and appreciate that the learning of today will be the turning point of the future.
Man will not be able to survive by instinct alone. The gathering of new things and ways is complimentary to the basic needs of man. With added knowledge we are able to understand and distinguish between our needs and wants. It enables us to distinguish priorities from the non-essential. Equipped as such we are enabled to put things in order with harmony in our dealings. The rational man has the ability to make better decisions that will be beneficial to him and those who are around him with respect to socio-economic needs more so with personal growth. Education is also important because it sets the acceptable norms and standards in the moral and ethical values in every society; the ability to live in harmony with others.
Learning is a continuous process. We must understand that some global concerns is a product of man’s individual action and reaction. The absence of knowledge will not rectify our failures, all of us needs to continuously learn and share the knowledge to conserve the natural environment and preserve life for all generations. The great Albert Einstein once said, “Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.” From this, every learner is encouraged to make good in their studies for it is an investment for the future. Take heed, the point of order that education provides is empowerment to a better tomorrow for all
In a fast changing world, knowledge gain still remains the basic foundation of progress because education has proven itself to set point of order in the balance of life.
